bike trails

Paved cycling paths

Bike trails are paths designed or designated for bicycle travel, typically through parks, along waterfronts, or connecting neighborhoods.

They range from paved urban routes to rugged mountain tracks: The city added twenty miles of bike trails last year.

Also called bike paths or cycling trails, though trail often implies a more natural or unpaved surface.
